1. Hope laid up in heaven
2. Hope in us, by the Spirit of Christ, life, faith in Him who was crucified, is risen, ascended, exalted, reigning, interceding and coming again -- God incarnate, in His second coming.
3. Reason for hope: God's name, God's covenant promise of eternal glory in Christ, Christ's purchase of blood, Christ having taken possession as our Forerunner.
4. This was Abraham's hope, and is ours.
